No, YOU can disconnect from the Internet, and take your IE with you. :) It's really sad to see message like this coming from Microsofts latest .net distribution installer in year 2009. My computer, my nintendo wii, my mobile phone, my tv, even my refrigerator... everything is connected to the internet. Why would I disconnect now, when we worked so hard all those years to connect that shit up? :)

U2 is (aside from Lepa Brena) - the most anticipated concert of the year in Croatia. Marketing campaign was pretty strong (so I guess organizers invested some money) and commercials strongly advertised online ticket sale which started just couple of minutes ago (at 00:01AM).

Unfortunately for U2 fans, online ticket sales maybe did start, but they sure did end pretty fast. But not because web shop run out of tickets, but because web shop and organizers of the concert ran out of professionalism.

Look guys, if you decided to run so strong advertising campaign across couple of countries which loudly and clearly says: "Ticket sales start online on Friday at 00:01", I suppose one who does all that, would also build a website which can sustain such number of customers?

Well, I guess not.

Exactly the same thing happened some time ago when Croatian Football Association launched online reservation of world cup tickets (if I can recall correctly). I am not big sports fan but many of my friends are and they were very pissed.

Servers are so dirty cheap, and downtime costs a lot of money (nerves, reputation...), Especially if downtime happens a minute you launch your service. My personal preference/advice regarding server configuration in time of special events or service launch is - tend to over engineer your network! EC2, EBS, S3 (Amazon Web services) and other cloud computing solutions do their job pretty good in situations like this.

Otherwise you get this beauty...

WTF!? :)

Couple of days ago, Croatian Armed forces got brand new shiny uniforms. Timing is doubtful (hello recession!), but uniforms really are nice. Usual camouflage texture is replaced with pixelated texture along with pixelated map of Croatia (which I think is very cool). Purpose of pixelated texture is not to achieve maximum bling effect at battlefront nor to rise design awareness, this type of texture is actually called MARPAT (short for MARine PATtern) and in theory, it is a far more effective camouflage than standard uniform patterns because it mimics the dappled textures and rough boundaries found in natural settings.

Sad how truthful this is. :) Guru meditation error blowed my mind. The only thing missing is someone dying from heart attack.

Encouraged by latest news from Zastava about how they plan to produce low cost models of Fiat cars, as once proud owner of Zastava Skala I took a little trip down memory lane.

I've never seen this commercial before. And I must admit - it's brilliant. :)
